ORIGINAL STORY: Ubisoft’s UbiWorkshop blog has put out a teaser for a new project called Assassin’s Creed: Ascendance.

Jérôme Leclerc-Couture says little about the project in the video description, except that "it’s obviously not a game!" We’re not quite sure why, but he seems awfully excited about that fact.

Based on the 30-second teaser trailer, Ascendance looks like a new Assassin’s Creed motion comic. Ubisoft has supplemented past Assassin’s Creed games with a series of animated side-stories. Perhaps AC: Ascendance, previously called "Secret Project #3," appear on the Brotherhood disc? At this point that’s just speculation, but we’ll know more soon.
